Is anyone going to the special talk today?

by dmouse in

there is a special talk today, evidently about our old friend babylon the great.

there is some speculation that it might be related to the possible new light on the un that undisfellowshipped spoke about in his thread:.

I am reminded of the "special sauce" that is placed on Big Mac sandwiches.

It is mayo and catsup with a bit of finely diced sweet pickle relish.

Much like the "special talk" when broken down to it's essentials, It is not so special.

My wife and I went to see Morrissey 2 and a half years ago. He was excellent! He did a few Smiths tunes...

Still a "charming man"

How much money would it take for you to go out in service?

by unbeliever in

friends

say you had to go out in field service for 2 hours in your neighborhood and talk to your neighbors about jehovah.

what would somebody have to pay you to do this or would you not do it for any amount of money?

if i am going to humilate myself it better be worth my while.

Huxley

It would be pretty fun to do it as a "performance art" piece.

Man approaches door....beer in one hand...lit cigar in the other..slovenly ill-fitting suit...tie loosened...

"Hey..uhh..how about some magazines, they are all about...

(Hacking wheezing smokers cough...drink of beer..)

....sorry, uh they are all about the Paradise."

music groups that pi$$ed JWs off

by Pleasuredome in

i always found it funny that jws hated pop groups with a passion.

here's some groups, that i was always being had a go at for listening to, or told that they shouldnt be listened to...

guns n roses - for sexist and viloent lyrics.

We had a CO back in the eighties who had a real problem with the Stray Cats. He claimed they acted like felines onstage and had sex with each other. "Would you invite these people into your home?" He asked.

I think I would as long as they didn't use the cat box.

I bet the song "dear god" by XTC would raise some witness eyebrows. Blasphemous but beautiful, one of my top songs..

tKingdom Melodies I remember/liked.

by ScoobySnax in

jw
friends

ok bucking the trend here, but there was some kms i liked, alot of stick has been given to "gods loyal love"....well i liked that one.

nice melody.. i think song 4 "gods promise of a paradise" too.

and song number 15 "life without end at last".....remember this was in the brown book....still like that one, especially at conventions, always guaranteed to be on the sunday programme, still get teary eyed at that one.. what i want to know is what happened to "keep your eyes on the prize"....i can remember writing those words out on a sheet and hanging it in my room, surely the classic jw kingdom melody of all time...guaranteed at conventions circa 70's/80/s......still miss it, and hum it even now occasionaly.

The marriage song..."Marriage, god's arrangement"(?)

You can sing it to the tune of The Muppet Show, and the lyrics fit perfectly.

first, i never was a jw, but since a dear friend of mine is one, i'm here to learn from the human elements in order to give her quiet assistance in leaving someday (soon, i hope).... i love reading.

my favorite author thru the years has been cs lewis.

i read narnia in hs, and loved the last book the best (last battle).
